Taught to Kill: An American Boy's War from the Ardennes to Berlin by John B. Babcock
John Babcock lets us see World War II through his eyes - just over the rim of the foxhole. He offers one infantry rifleman's personal story about combat, casualties, how he fought, and with which weapons, and about both the heroism and cowardice of his fellow soldiers. Published in cooperation with the Association of the United States Army, it is a gripping account of how an ordinary American boy felt and experienced the so-called good war.
